This week the VPL hosted 12 people.
Don't let the low numbers fool you. This week had some of the best poker we've seen in weeks. Despite only having 12 people (with weeks having 17, 16, and 14). You would think this would make for a quick evening........quite the opposite.
This week the tournament did not end until the blinds reached 400-800. This is quite the feat with only 12 people.
Of course we start at the bubble. Week 5 had some very strategic play on the bubble. The four people were: Clay, Bill, TC and Michelle.
It seemed like blinds were being traded back and forth. Chips were being passed back and forth. Michelle can milk a shortstack like no other.
I personally tried to take her out twice only to double her up both times. But finally in the end, it was Michelle who left the final table in 4th place.
Then it was I who had to make my exit from week #5 in 3rd place with a $30 win.
Heads up: Bill and Clay (they both have previously qualified).
Finally with the blinds at 400-800, it was time to finish the tournament. Clay was the last man standing this week. For his 1st place finish he took home $102 and Bill's 2nd place finish helped him get $51.
The points have now been updated through week 5. Check the right hand side.
After week 5, there are 9 people qualified for the TOC.
Good luck everyone and we'll see you next week.
